This was the only ICC T20 World Cup when these two teams met each other in the Group Stage. England won the toss and decided to put a total on the board to under pressure its arch-rival Australia chasing down that target.

His 32 runs not cameo helped South Africa to reach a fighting total of 146 runs. Xavier Doherty bowled brilliantly. He bowled four overs, giving away just 20 runs, and got 3 wickets.

Australia remained positive during the chase because such a total usually traps chasing teams. Sometimes the chasing team could not decide whether to attack or save wickets for the end. But Australia was too smart in the chasing. They gave license to their informed batsmen Shane Watson to have a go. And Shane Watson did what he was sent for. He scored 70 crucial runs for his team, facing 47 balls.

The Morne Morkel got one for 23 runs in his four overs. Australia got to the target in 17.4 overs, losing two wickets. South Africa could not manage to win a single match in this round. Australia qualifies for the Semi-Final.

In the T20 World Cup’s past editions, 5 matches have been played between these two cricketing rich nations. West Indies has won all five matches leaving no space for England to show their ability.
